As a guess, there would be a lower oxygen concentration or partial pressure at higher altitudes. Since oxygen is required for combustion.

How many minutes of cooking time from lb propane tank with 4 burners on high?

The cooking time you can get from a 1 lb propane tank with four burners on high depends on the BTU rating of your burners. Typically, a standard propane burner uses about 10,000 to 15,000 BTUs per hour. Since a 1 lb propane tank holds approximately 21,600 BTUs, you could expect about 1.5 to 2 hours of cooking time with all four burners on high, translating to roughly 90 to 120 minutes. However, actual cooking time may vary based on burner efficiency and usage.

How many BTUs are in a gallon of propane?

Type your answer here... there are around 91,600 BTUs in a gallon of propane. The standard BBQ sized bottle of propane contains 11 pounds of propane. Propane weighs about 4.2 pounds per gallon, so that 11 pounds of propane is about 2.5 gallons in its liquid state. That means there is 91,600 BTUs/Gal times 2.5 gallons so a BBQ sized tank of propane contains about 2.3 million BTUs. If your BBQ has a 50,000 BTU burner, on high heat, it will last a bit over 4 and half hours of run time.


Can propane burn at high altitudes?

Yes, propane can burn at high altitudes. However, the combustion process may be affected by the lower oxygen levels typically found at higher altitudes. The lower oxygen levels can result in incomplete combustion, leading to reduced efficiency and potentially higher levels of carbon monoxide production. It is important to adjust the air-to-fuel ratio or use equipment specifically designed for high-altitude use to ensure safe and efficient combustion of propane at high altitudes.
